So, yes I am working on using IPv6, with my RV/mobile-lab.
I think that IPv6 is a good thing.
But I would be remis to not say that IPv6 is somewhat of a black sheep
in the email administrators community.
You still effectively must have IPv4 connectivity to your email server,
lest a non-trivial percentage of email fail to flow.
I also know of a number of email administrators that are specifically
dragging their feet regarding IPv6 because there hasn't yet been
critical mass use of IPv6 /for/ /email/.
In fact, some of the early IPv6 adopters for email are spammers. So
some administrators stim this tide by being exclusively IPv4.
I think dual stack for email servers is great. (Deal with the spam.)
But being exclusively IPv6 on an email server is going to be problematic.
I'm focusing on email servers because that's what this thread had
largely been about.
